I am interested in the building but am concerned about the HOA fees. Is there a future problem and are there reserves.
I'm a huge fan of this building. Though the tallest in its immediate vicinity, it doesn't look out of place, and it fits in surprisingly nicely with the deco and midcentury buildings that surround it. The homes that face Lake Merritt have wonderful, peaceful views of the lake with the Berkeley-Oakland hills off in the background, and the units opposite have great downtown city views. The lobby is HUGE and has a 24-hour attendant. The common areas and halls are light and bright and less hotel-like than some SF high rises. The building feels more like a true home than a traveler's luxury hotel. The whole building reflects a casual elegance, and the amenities are superb. The units inside vary greatly in their finishes--from original to 2001 to upgraded and remodeled.
